| fancy being on a compilaton? to help the country folk of stirling? Anyway living in stirling noting much happens and me and one of my mates were thinking that hardly any decent bands play in stirling so we thought about how we could afford to put gigs on then we realized that I get paid the minimum wage and hes unemployed so we could'nt afford it and we came up with an idea so we could make some money to try and book pubs/halls and afford other shit, we gonan try and make a Ska/Punk compilation of scottish bands anyway do you guys fancy being on it? I was gonan e-mail yous but I thought it would be better just to post on your board, anyway this is what I was gonan e-mails yous so pretend its an e-mail and please dont ignore this (the e-mail may not make sence with me already posting this but hear goes) Quote:
Ok being in a band yous probably get tons of e-mail's like this and probably most of them get ignored! Please don't ignore this one anyway me and my mate have been really bored and my mate has been working on a site that is all about band sin Stirling http://punkmedia.tripod.com/
hopefully in a while the site will be extended to bands around Scotland, but the site isn't even a week old yet! Anyway along with the site me and him are also planning on making a compilation of Scottish punk/ska bands and we I was wondering if yous guys would allow us to yous one of your tracks? If yous are interested please could yous reply to this post on our message board http://www.alternativenation.net/for...hp?forumid=245 or e-mails anorakrecods@hotmail.com with the link of the mp3 that you would like on the site
Anyway if we manage to get enough bands to give us songs for the compilation we will try and sell it for about 4 quid and if the yous are interested in selling it at your gigs etc. Yous can sell it for as much as yous want and all that we will want is the cost for the paper and shit so it will probably be a quid. I've e-mailed/posted on lots of bands web sites lets hope me and my mate can get this to work so we have something to do! And Were only wanting to put songs on the CDs that we like aswell. please reply and I hope my typing made sence!

| Here, mate... I was going to get in touch with you yesterday about this, I saw your forum and thought it might be worth getting involved in... we've been talking about getting involved in more scenes outside Glasgow for a while, so we'd probably be glad to help out. Gies a shout at stu@minusthree.com with anything you might need us to know. |

| We should totally bring the rawk to Stirling. Maybe with Mangara, the Cherrykicks, or the Alpacinos, if any of them are up for it? The kids need us...

| Totally... a show like that would pay for itself easily with that line up, especially if it's likely a good show in Stirling would pull in a crowd of gig-hungry rockers/punks... Jordan, you should get in touch with Jamie Alpachino (Sucker™ on the forum, also does Pig Station Vacation) and see if you can work something out with him for getting that gig on out there, assuming we could get the other bands up for it too. He's excellent at putting bands on (for a lazy stoner bastard, haha).
I'll email back with a couple of URLs for tracks you can download later today, too. |

| Jen says Mangara would be up for it. The Alpacinos play any gig they're asked to. The Cherrykicks might be doing their hair that night though...

| Andy... You have beautiful hair... When in your presence I have to fight the urge to stroke it. Oh how I long to feel it beneath my fingertips!
Should we all get onto Jamie and moan at him until he books us all a gig in Stirling then?

| That'd be an amazing line-up for a Stirling gig - The Cherrykicks, the Alpacinos, Minus 3, Mangara, Brutal Goose.
Also reckon we should get ourselves on the bill for that Goosefest in Hamilton Iain from Starka is putting together. It sounds like a right royal knees-up mother brown.
